Foles - just saw the play for the first time before I came in here. Everything happened so fast, just unfortunate thing to happen. Landed on it wrong and we’ll keep moving forward. pic.twitter.com/NcBwseQPcj

Gardner Minshew - not happy with circumstances of getting on field, breaks my heart to see why happened to Nick. Was awful seeing him go down like that. But he’ll be with me and we’ll get this team where it needs to go. @ActionNewsJax @ActionSportsJax @ESPN690Jax pic.twitter.com/5TRuSsxQGZ

QB Nick Foles has been ruled out with a left shoulder injury. pic.twitter.com/ChOxvmBOJR
Foles threw a touchdown pass on his second drive in a Jaguars uniform, but on the play got sandwiched between two players from Kansas City. Foles was holding his left shoulder/arm area coming off the field and left for X-Rays. Moments later, the Jaguars ruled Foles out of the game.
There is no official word on how serious the injury is to Foles.
I'm now researching shoulder injuries.
